Sorry to have touched a nerve
[QUOTE=JJFresh;4688909]Interesting that in that entire article, which clearly points out the power of the customer vs the business, you only acknowledge that one piece of sentence, but refuse to acknowledge the message. LOL And you have a way with twisting my words into things that I never said, like "we should set the price at $10"....?? I never said that. You're trying to battle with wits, and you're not very good at it. You have a very liberal nature about you. LOL.
As I have been saying for a long time, as well as others have said, IF WE ALL SAID NO THE RIDICULOUS RATES, IT WILL GO DOWN! That is all I have been saying. I challenge everyone to say NO to the GPS hoes for 30 days and see what happens!
And yes I pay for pussy sometimes. Duh! I don't deny that, BUT I don't put pussy on a pedestal and I don't always pay for it, but when I do, I don't give my business to the GPS hoes! And yes, I can get it for free!
Once last point, as pointed out in the article: "The bottom line is this: You can have all the OEMs and partners you want. You can satisfy their needs all you want. But if the product you manufacture doesn't add value, doesn't sell, or isn't something the end customer cares about, both you and your partners are going to go out of business. " "ECON 101" Smh
WHO WORKS FOR WHO? You still have not answered that question!
Stay FRESH 💪[/QUOTE]Yes, you're correct, I picked out a single line from the article to use in my post. That said, since it was from the article you used to support your argument, it certainly seemed appropriate to pull a statement out of that same article to demonstrate the inaccuracy of the argument. And you're also correct in that, to my knowledge, you never said we should set the price at $10. Instead, I merely took your argument to its logical conclusion. After all, if we, and we alone, dictate the price, why not make it dirt cheap? I'll answer that for you, because we alone do NOT dictate the price. As I stated in reply to OriginalSin (by the way, are you two related?) it takes BOTH sides to determine the price. Just as we would never pay $1,000, they would never accept $10. We do what we can to bring the price down, they do what they can to take the price up, and we reach a mutually agreeable rate. The same is true in any business, service industry or otherwise. The outcome would be the same whether you're talking about the pool cleaner, the CPA, mechanic, lawn maintenance or whatever. If the price is too low, the provider will stop providing, at least to that person, and move on. Similar with the consumer, if the price is too high, the consumer will shop around and look for another provider.
This forum is pretty much a "union"
[QUOTE=Camera3;4689732]Oh, contraire. I imagine a huge percentage of guys are in this hobby because their "free" pussy is either awful or cutting them off.
Look, using economic terms, your premise is we guys should, basically, form a union and demand lower prices. This works only if ALL members of the community join the union. Either that or if the providers would respect the union demands even for non-union members.
The best example of this is the recent demise of K-Mart. They died a slow death because they refused to listen to concerned citizens (the case of the PAC that called them out on being the largest seller of porn and them ignoring that and falling to the largest boycott in US history. And couple with the fact that they just couldn't compete with upstarts like Walmart).
I can only imagine that the members on this site make up a small fraction of guys that hire hookers in Central Florida. I base this on the reviews I read on other sites by guys not on here and the huge number of hookers that advertise but are never reviewed here. Don't get me wrong, I value the judgements of our members. I just wish their reviews were more broad, and that we saw more ladies and reviewed them. Face it, we have a very few members who even review and they tend to review the same girls over and over.
A real-world case. I recently offered up a UTR who was in need and agreed to see more guys to raise the cash she needed. I made one post and had about 85 guys ask for her contact info. Only about 60 made the cut because of review count and history. Of those, five contacted her and two made dates. If you are trying to form any sort of unity front (to form your union), that record sucks.
So, yeah, none of us wants to pay more than a certain amount for fuck a lady. But to exercise control over that, you would need to form a solid union and be willing for ALL in the union to strike.
With respect, sir, that is a dog that don't hunt.
Not exactly an economics term, but you get the point.
OK. All that said, what can we REALLY do? Set our own standards. Decide what you can afford and stick with it. Be willing to get what you get for the price. If your willingness to spend is $80, you aren't going to get most of the ladies reviewed here and advertise on the various sites to fuck you. But you will get some to, they are just not going to be top shelf. Each of us has to decide what we are willing to spend for what quality. And, if enough of us are willing to just walk away, then, yeah, we can have some effect of the price of things. But we cannot control it.
Play safe,
C3.[/QUOTE]Aren't we in a "union" now? LOL Wouldn't this forum be considered a "union?"
And YES! Setting a standard is a GREAT idea! It's not going to happen overnight, but if we all participate consistently everyday, it WILL and CAN happen! OR we do nothing. Then we'll just keep getting what we're getting now! I know which team I'm playing for, I've already drawn my line in the sand and I know there are others that have too.
So who's team are you on?
